These lessons and...

...goal, always, is to help direct tutees to become stronger writers who can at some point stand on their own. The writing tutor course led to work in the Community College of Denver writing tutor center where I helped numerous tutees with their essays, poems, fiction pieces and other writings.

...I represented the University of Colorado Boulder alongside selected colleagues in a memorable performance at Carnegie Hall. I count myself lucky to be a part of the vibrant musical culture in Colorado. Teaching has always been an important part of my journey.

To engage in the process of...

...I completed the International Baccalaureate program and select AP courses (AB Calc, Biology). Though I have experience teaching students in French and English/ESL, I am able to tutor in most middle and high school course subjects. My teaching philosophy relies on patience, repetition and simplifying difficult concepts in a way that takes the intimidation out of learning new material. In my free time, I love to discover new music, write and practice photography.

I've always liked helping people and I think sharing my many, many years of work experience (especially software engineering) allows me to give real-world knowledge to those who thirst for knowledge. Or even to those who just want to pass a test.
